The Rest of the Robots: Generative AI in Post-introductory Computing Education
Abstract
Generative AI (GenAI) is playing an increasingly influential role in computing education across all levels, offering new opportunities to support both teaching and learning.However, its effective integration raises critical concerns related to trust, academic integrity, and broader social and ethical implications.While substantial attention has been given to GenAI use in introductory programming courses (e.g., CS0/CS1), there remains a notable gap in research addressing its application in "upper-level" computing courses, such as software engineering, human-computer interaction, algorithms, operating systems, and theoretical computer science.* The views expressed in this article, book, or presentation are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the United States Air Force Academy, the Air Force, the Department of Defense, or the U.S. Government.
